DescriptionOpen264-SD and Open264-D is a H.264/AVC video decoder optimized for multi-channel video decoding for applications such as DVR(Digital Video Recorder) or CMS/VMS(Video Management Solution). Open264-SD and Open264-D optimizes memory bandwidth usage and utilize Multicore distributed processing for multi-threaded decoding to enable higher performance of the final product.

Open264-D is the decoding engine for Open264-SD. Open264-SD additionally includes video scaler and color converter to support the customer on faster and easier deployment of the codec. Due to hardware PCI bus and main board speed limitations, non-scaling codecs are not possible to decode more than 50 D1 channels per system. The only method to decode more than 50 channels of D1(720x480) resolution video at real-time(30fps) is using the scaling decoder such as Open264-SD. Open264-SD will also save considerable CPU usage even for 16 channel systems.
